Gqom music

Gqom is a genre of electronic dance music that emerged in the early 2010s from Durban, South Africa.Unlike other South African electronic music, gqom is typified by minimal, raw and repetitive sound with heavy bass beats but without the four-on-the-floor rhythm pattern. qom is a musical genre that evolved from South African House music in late 2000s, specifically Kwaito, and is often described as a more minimal and raw version, stripped down to only include the beat. The main difference is Gqom's syncopated rhythm used instead of the Kwaito's 4/4 time signature. (more)
